Prince Andrew, Duke of York KG GCVO CD ADC(P)

[pepesgrill]

I think I remember you... It's... Yes, it's Seaman Staines isnt it?

that master & commander one of my favourite
movies. that guy wrote some 20 novels in that
series. i was aghast there was never a sequel

"Wots wrong with socks and sandals then?"

Exactly the same as wearing shorts in public (except on beach etc), There'a a TIME & PLACE

Well things would be different if I was visiting the Queen back in the UK. I would make sure I had Matching Socks, a new pair of designer Sandals, I'd press my Shorts and make sure I had a Clean Hanky.
Anyone else can take me as I am.

Bloody commoners

[GT93]

Why the hell would Prince Andrew have once been the Queen's favourite son? He's a jerk.

Look in the mirror see if you recognise yourself .....lol

He was (probably still is) Liz's favrit. Charles was the quiet, introverted first born whereas Andy was better looking, had charisma and was more outgoing. By the time Andy was hatched, she had been on the throne around eight years, was more settled with regard to her regal duties and most importantly, had more time to be involved with Andy's upbringing. Edward, the third son was a bit of a bump on a log in the Windsor history but no skeletons in his armoire.

[Earnest]

Edward wasn't so hot at organising It's a Royal Knockout back in 1987. It turned out to be a bit of a rolling goat.

[stattointhailand]

I suspect that as a "commoner" Andys Royal Sweat glands may have started producing again

[Earnest]

Come on, Statts, it's Sunday morning and I'm watching Titchmarsh on TV talking about wine. I really don't want to think about some dirty, old man's sweat glands.

[pepesgrill]

whats most bizarre( if you read this guiffre womans backstory) she had just a bad life but

actually met a decent AUS boy& started 2nd go

[Earnest]

Well, that's good, isn't it?

I think that the lesson is that the male Windsors should never get involved with American women; Simpson, Markle or Giuffre, nothing wrong with the girls, it's just that the Royals and the Establishment don't know how to handle 'em.

Stick to gormless wonders from the county set...or Geordie girls, you can't beat a Geordie lass.

[stattointhailand]

but ladies of the stage or orange sellers cause just as many problems to a fine upstanding young chap

[pepesgrill]

can't help but feel a little for prince harry. led astray

by wiles of saucy minx. his defenses crumbled.
lolita , femme fatale , brits must have name for it

* here the ginger prince not andrew *

[stattointhailand]

"JAILBAIT"

[Khun Paul]

He waas nicknamed Randy Andy by his forces colleagues, one has to wonder why that was .........eh

[Earnest]

Well, an aircraft carrier can be a lonely place for plenty of young men, sir.

I am no way defending Prince Andrew i think hes a tool .. whose brain is in his sausage helmet...but all the focus is on him .. surely this woman then 17 year old girl must bear some responsibility for putting herself in a position to be as she says duped and sexually abused , all be it being paid a lot of money (tempting) then another 500k to sign an agreement not to name anyone involved seems to me she knew what all this was about and cant blame coming from a broken home etc , whether she was a young slapper on the make ?? is open for conjecture and the fact its royalty has obviously swayed her mindset to go after a mega pay day .. but of course ..shes only after justice for her and others ITS NOT ABOUT THE CASH Like it was in the beginning of this tale.

Lots of mileage in this saga yet .. meat n two veg for the tabloids n TV media especially now Lizzy has intervened n lopped off his titles, patronages n HRH etc.

I see Harry is now taking the Windsors to court over having his security detail removed as he feels too unsafe to come to the UK .. WALOB.

[GT93]

I think she's a bit odd too. She seems pretty chilled to jump on to the big stage. And a $5 million pay out would be ridiculous but the law is often an ass.

[jackspratt]

Got a link for that, DM - it certainly is big news!

Everything I have read says he is suing the UK government, to overturn a decision not to allow him a police security detail if he was to visit home with his family - which he has said he will pay for.

[Drunk Monkey]

yes i clouded the issue ... as Lizzy chose to remove H n M from the royal family they lost their tax funded security ..they are actually taking legal action against the UK government home office department not the Windsors tho it was the their actions that prompted the UKHO decision to pull the security gig.

I have more sympathy for Andrew Windsor than Harry Windsor although I qualify that in that I don't know just how low Andrew Windsor sank when hanging out with Epstein.
